how long to bake sweet potato at 400
The baking time for sweet potatoes at 400°F (200°C) depends on their size. Here’s a general guide:
- Small sweet potatoes (about 4–5 ounces each): 45–60 minutes.
- Medium sweet potatoes (about 6–8 ounces each): 60–75 minutes.
- Large sweet potatoes (about 10–12 ounces each): 75–90 minutes.
Poke some holes in them with a fork, rub with oil, and season before baking. They’re done when soft when pierced with a fork. Let them cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.
